  • MIP Tempox based Intra Prediction
  • prediction is created using samples from one or more reference frames.
  • the prediction from the motion compensation of the block is not always suitable.
  • the temporal gap can be so large than motion compensated blocks do not necessarily offer a good RD (rate distortion) compromise, even for areas common between the 2 frames.
  • RD rate distortion
  • the ratio of intra coded block in the first inter frame of GOP of size 32 is commonly above 50%.
  • intra mode prediction increases the decoder complexity because it introduces latency during the decoding of inter slice: all inter and intra blocks around the current block should first be reconstructed in order to start the reconstruction of the current intra block. For low delay decoder it can introduces further latency in the pipeline.
  • inter based prediction allows full parallelism of inter based reconstruction.
  • the number of directional intra modes in WC is extended from 33, as used in HEVC, to 65.
  • the new directional modes not in HEVC are depicted as red dotted arrows in Figure 1 , and the planar and DC modes remain the same.
  • These denser directional intra prediction modes apply for all block sizes and for both luma and chroma intra predictions.
  • every intra-coded block has a square shape and the length of each of its side is a power of 2. Thus, no division operations are required to generate an intrapredictor using DC mode.
  • blocks can have a rectangular shape that necessitates the use of a division operation per block in the general case. To avoid division operations for DC prediction, only the longer side is used to compute the average for non-square blocks.
  • MPM most probable mode
  • a unified 6-MPM list is used for intra blocks irrespective of whether MRL and ISP coding tools are applied or not.
  • the MPM list is constructed based on intra modes of the left and above neighboring block. Suppose the mode of the left is denoted as Left and the mode of the above block is denoted as Above, the unified MPM list is constructed as follows:
  • Max - Min is equal to 1 :
  • Max - Min is greater than or equal to 62 :
  • Max - Min is equal to 2 :
  • the first bin of the mpm index codeword is CABAC context coded. In total three contexts are used, corresponding to whether the current intra block is MRL enabled, ISP enabled, or a normal intra block.
  • TBC Truncated Binary Code
  • Matrix weighted intra prediction (MIP) method is a newly added intra prediction technique into WC. For predicting the samples of a rectangular block of width W and height H, matrix weighted intra prediction (MIP) takes one line of H reconstructed neighbouring boundary samples left of the block and one line of W reconstructed neighbouring boundary samples above the block as input. If the reconstructed samples are unavailable, they are generated as it is done in the conventional intra prediction. The generation of the prediction signal is based on the following three steps, which are averaging, matrix vector multiplication and linear interpolation as shown in Figure 19.
  • Position dependent intra prediction combination In VVC, the results of intra prediction of DC, planar and several angular modes are further modified by a position dependent intra prediction combination (PDPC) method.
  • PDPC is an intra prediction method which invokes a combination of the boundary reference samples and HEVC style intra prediction with filtered boundary reference samples.
  • PDPC is applied to the following intra modes without signalling: planar, DC, intra angles less than or equal to horizontal, and intra angles greater than or equal to vertical and less than or equal to 80. If the current block is Bdpcm mode or MRL index is larger than 0, PDPC is not applied.
  • PDPC When PDPC is applied to DC, planar, horizontal, and vertical intra modes, additional boundary filters are not needed, as required in the case of HEVC DC mode boundary filter or horizontal/vertical mode edge filters.
  • PDPC process for DC and Planar modes is identical.
  • For angular modes if the current angular mode is HORJDX or VERJDX, left or top reference samples is not used, respectively.
  • the PDPC weights and scale factors are dependent on prediction modes and the block sizes. PDPC is applied to the block with both width and height greater than or equal to 4.
  • Figure 3 illustrates the definition of reference samples (R x ,-i and R-i, y ) for PDPC applied over various prediction modes.
  • the prediction sample pred(x’, y’) is located at (x’, y’) within the prediction block.
  • the reference samples R x ,-i and R-i, y could be located in fractional sample position. In this case, the sample value of the nearest integer sample location is used.
  • Multiple reference line (MRL) intra prediction uses more reference lines for intra prediction.
  • Figure 4 an example of 4 reference lines is depicted, where the samples of segments A and F are not fetched from reconstructed neighbouring samples but padded with the closest samples from Segment B and E, respectively.
  • HEVC intra-picture prediction uses the nearest reference line (i.e., reference line 0).
  • reference line 0 the nearest reference line
  • 2 additional lines reference line 1 and reference line 3 are used.
  • the index of selected reference line (mrl_idx) is signalled and used to generate intra predictor.
  • reference line idx which is greater than 0, only include additional reference line modes in MPM list and only signal mpm index without remaining mode.
  • the reference line index is signalled before intra prediction modes, and Planar mode is excluded from intra prediction modes in case a nonzero reference line index is signalled.
  • MRL is disabled for the first line of blocks inside a CTU to prevent using extended reference samples outside the current CTU line. Also, PDPC is disabled when additional line is used.
  • MRL mode the derivation of DC value in DC intra prediction mode for non-zero reference line indices is aligned with that of reference line index 0.
  • MRL requires the storage of 3 neighboring luma reference lines with a CTU to generate predictions. Note that the Cross-Component Linear Model (CCLM) tool also requires 3 neighboring luma reference lines for its down-sampling filters. MRL is designed to use the same 3 lines as CCLM to reduce the storage requirements for decoders.

  • the same logic applies to the vertical samples.
  • the resulting filter of the sub-pixel motion compensation and Gaussian filtering is reduced to 3 taps, giving the same complexity than current intra smoothing of reference samples.

  • planar mode becomes:
  • a more generic variant is to use all samples of the block. However, the goal of the prediction is NOT to give an accurate prediction of the inner of the block (otherwise, inter based mode would have been selected).
